..even though they lost to an undefeated ND team in the Sugar Bowl.

Wow - that's both funny and pathetic.

UPI awarded them the NC. Did you notice ND claims 66, when Bama was the only undefeated team that year? Or 5 other NC's when they didn't even play in Bowl games?

It was awarded before the bowl game (as most titles were back then), re-re.

At this point I don't even bother. I just let the uneducated remain uneducated.

We are going to beat the frick out of ND in January and they will realize just how far they still are from being a good football team. We can beat them without ever throwing the football.

Don't confuse the AP and UPI/Coaches polls. Now GTFO and go DIAF.
